how are you guys helping us by giving us worse players than what we have?
- Tumbleweed

You are sadly mistaking the ability of some of your players.

Thanks Carol.

Yeah I didnt really consider how many DMs you would be bombarded with, sorry.

6th

So Benning won that trade

granlund is a young former 20 goal scorer making peanuts that can PK. He alone is worth a 2nd + 4th



Dowd is probably worth a 5th I'd say
- Nucker101

Granlund won't be in play at this TDL. He just had season-ending ankle surgery so he won't be moved before the draft.

He's a Leafs fan. That trait is in their DNA.

We'll we don't have any Gudbranson's but we're doing alright. We'll keep plodding along.

Nobody does, but they will wish they did come playoffs

you guys seem to love Brown. Granlund is the finnish version of him.

Dowd is a younger/faster version of Moore
- Nucker101

we certainly don't need wingers. i mean, we have kapanen on the 4th line who could easily be playing higher up. with martin now on the bench, we have no use for grandlund.

dowd/moore is a wash. babs will push for glendening to upgrade our 4C anyways.

Yup, that is all you guys will do. What a waste of a very decent top 6 talent.

damn you phucker101! trying to sell me a bag of broken goods!

I'm surprised they even went ahead with the playoffs last year. It wasn't the same without Erik. His 0 points and 10 Pims in 13 playoff games have been, and will continue to be, sorely missed

LA will be very active. Carter cleared to return, tied for 3rd in the division. They could easily disprove the whole fast hockey theory...

shhh


just let this happen

Who? Princess Willy? Midget Mitch? Buston Matthews? The Rat Kadri?

You guy's told us our top 6 are all busts. Shoulda taken Laine. Or do you mean Hyman?

i kinda hope they do just to see GM's lose their poop and do a complete 180

What you fail to recognize are all the little things he does to help his team win. There is more to a playoff game then goals and assists.

Erm...... yes, yes i do.

I'd suggest he change those things are try the opposite.

Nope, I’ve read it three times and I still have no idea what you are trying to say

Here's my trade proposals:

To VGK: Vanek
To VAN: 2018 2nd round pick (conditional 1st if VGK wins Cup)

To TOR: Tanev + 2018 2nd round pick (VAN)
To VAN: Zeitsev + 2018 1st round pick

The first one is pretty self-explanatory, VGK gets depth for a Cup run and gives us an extra pick for JB to use to make up for losing ours in the second one. The second is probably the least likely but the reasoning is to help facilitate bringing Tryamkin back from the KHL next season as he'd have a Russian D partner to build chemistry with and if Toronto is serious about making through the East, they're going to need Tanev who can suppress shots and might be much more durable in the East than the West.

So basically Tanev for Zeitsev straight up

Vanek won't get this much, and Tanev is worth more than this. ESP with a 2nd added.

Zaitsev is not very good in his own zone though. I would rather Dermott and a pick for Tanev. Also, no more including picks in deals!!!!!

I'm suggesting, taking a scan of the records of the two NHL teams he's played for, that the statement Gudbranson does anything to help his team win, is wayward.

If that's the case, he's successful about 40% of the time.

To VGK: Vanek
To VAN: 2018 2nd round pick (conditional 1st if VGK wins Cup)

Can't we just leave Toronto out of every proposal. It's like an EK blog.

Leafs in on Simmonds. Leafs in on Stamkos. Leafs in on Tavares. Leafs in on any Nuck player fans want moved.
